Sports again! 😃
The Olympic Games have been around for a long while and we can’t help referring to this unique event… and yes, we need correct from the start all those who think that the Games are merely a sports event since they are much more than that, irrespective of this time we live in.
We love thinking about how much effort, work, will and motivation is required for someone to merit the right to represent their own country at this single event. Whatever the results and records, athletes who rank among the best in the world are really special and will remember this experience for their entire lives.
There is also evidence that kindness, helpfulness and humanity are appreciated around the world and in life…from sailing competitors who waived their medal to save another competitor whose life was in danger through judokas who deliberately avoided attacking their rival’s injured leg to make the match as fair as possible to fencers who admitted being touched by their rival’s épée even though the referees did not see it and thus lost their victory and the golden medal, to racers who stopped their race to help an injured rival and crossed the finish together or high jumpers with the same results who decided to share the gold medal instead of competing against each other until one gave in… These examples always inspire us and prove all over again that human’s decency and humanity will be retold as much as the medals.
Thus, even if you are not a great sports fan, try to see this magical competition through another prism, respecting everybody participating and certainly supporting your country and your favourite competitors… We are certain that all this will be even more fun and enjoyable if you share your experience with people you love, food you love… Hummusapiens know exactly what we mean. 😉
